LEED Gold Certified Home in High Falls, NY – Project Summary

by Alfandre Architecture

Gold Certified LEED residence exterior.
Gold Certified LEED Residence Interior
Gold Certified LEED Residence Exterior

Project Summary

Certified Gold under the USGBC LEED for Homes program. This light and sun-filled single family residence exceeds current energy code requirements by more than 60%. The house is oriented to provide the main living spaces with abundant light all year long.

Deep overhangs are used to control solar gain in the summertime. Equipped with a solar electric as well as solar hot water system, energy costs are offset by approximately 50% per year. The house is maximally energy efficient, with insulation and air sealing of paramount concern. Fresh air is cycled through the house using a heat recovery ventilation system. It is an elegant home situated in the woods built with minimal site disturbance.
